It’s not just a bunch of hooey when we recommend that you checkout the Bureau of Labor Statistics whenever you think of diving into a new profession. And if you live in another country, see if you can find a similar site relevant to your communities.
The information on this bureau site is so valuable, that we felt they had to be included on the list of Top 50 Security Guard Training Websites of 2012.
To start with, you can find out their median pay and how many jobs are available in the United States. Useful information, agreed?
There is a headline on the site that says “What Security Guards and Gaming Surveillance Do.” Gaming Surveillance? Hmm. Maybe this could be a related field for you. In fact, in the top nav bar, you’ll find a tab for Similar Occupations.
They have tabs for work environment, the employment outlook, and how to become a security guard or gaming surveillance specialist. Talk about information at your fingertips.
They also have contacts for further information … and the one link there, so far, is a good one. I assure you.
This site is definitely worth exploring, and for once, I advise not limiting yourself to security guards. For grins and giggles, widen your search. See what’s out there.
Congratulations, once again, to the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the United States: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos159.htm
